QF Blast Gate NFES Auto

Blast gates are used as energy saving devices for industrial dust extraction where extraction is not always needed and where manual control needs to be eliminated. Nordfab’s NFES Automatic Blast Gates are operated by double-acting compressed air cylinders. The cylinders are controlled by electrically-connected solenoid to machines or a remote switch. Gates are constructed of galvanized metal or SS (optional) and a special sealing device that reduces air loss and friction in operation. 120V control circuit and 75psi minimum air pressure.

• Optional 24V DC or AC control circuit available.
• Single cylinder: 3″ to 8″. Two cylinders: 9″ to 22″.
• RS = optional Reed Switch. See our Product Reference for construction and components information.
• Collar available in Galvanized and 304SS (as shown below) or optional 316SS or carbon steel
• Available with flanged ends in diameters up to 22", and other various end types
• Other gauges available for collar: 18, 16, and 14 

Nordfab can assist customers in designing a blast-gated system, taking into account flow dynamics that will be affected by blast gates. While blast gates can be used to effectively utilize an undersized filtering system, they can also destroy the flow if not properly placed. Contact Nordfab or your local dealer to request assistance.
